There’s no question that Patmos island Greece is a beautiful place. From the moment you arrive at your Patmos hotel and step out onto the balcony, you’ll see deep sea views, sweeping mountain scenery, or a view of a peaceful garden. But there’s even more beauty to be explored on Patmos island, and you don’t want to miss out on the best bits of scenery.

Chora is the capital of Patmos, Greece, just about 4km away from the main port of Skala. It’s an easy walk from Skala to Chora and back again, so if you sought out Patmos hotels in Skala, it’s only natural to explore Chora, Patmos. Built high on a hill, here you can walk the winding streets taking in the traditional, whitewashed architecture, as well as a history that includes Saint John the Theologian, who put Patmos, Greece on the map.

Patmos Island Villages are a blend of coastal and traditional settlements perfectly matching the island's landscape. The plains, low hills, and valleys on the island contrast with the deep blue Aegean Sea all combine with the villages’ beauty, all constituting the Islands beautiful appearance..

Patmos Greece is an island located on the Southeastern part of the Aegean Sea. Although a relatively small island, it is very popular as a Christian pilgrimage site as apostle John wrote the popular Apocalypse book in a cave here.
